Since the people at my local toyota are slower the hell at returning phone calls, im looking to get a rough idea on my install price ....Can Anyone Help Thanks ?

 

u guys suk

 

You can do it yourself with the help of a friend in about an hour or two. Just find a friend who's mechanically inclined and buy him/her lunch and some beers for the effort.
There's really not much to it and you certainly don't need a spring compressor or to remove any brake lines or get an allignment.
Hell, I'd help you if you were closer and it wasn't colder than a witches tit outside.
On a side note, you might want to wait til the spring judging by the potholes in and around beantown.

 

My dealership quoted me $389 for install and allignment. To that I said, WTF-ever.
I installed them myself in about an hour. Use the spring install post under Features>Tech. It's so simple to do. Save yourself the $$ and do it for free.

BTW, who are you referring to when you say, "you guys suck?" No one reply to your thread fast enough for you?

 

289 at my dealership. getting it done for free.

 

well...i asked for it to be added as an option when i bought my tC. it only cost me $199 extra on my final cost of the car. that was the only option i requested. i'm kinda shocked at all the other prices i'm seeing.

 

$629. That is how much they want for the tC, xA, and xB. If you are just looking for a mild drop, get Tein H's installed @ a certified dealer near you. That is what I am doing but I Am getting S techs. The dealerships are crazy when it comes to "book time". and I let them know that, but then they started with this "pure pricing" story. I know what it is, but that only extends to MSRP.. Install time varies from dealer to dealer.

Bottom line, dont wait for your dealer, it is really hard to mess up spring install, just get a local shop to do it, and save ALOT of money.

800 for install at Fremont Scion. crazy i was thinking.

 

$150 all day long.

 

I got my Goldlines installed for free by my girlfriends dad, I helped though. He runs a shop BTW. I asked him what he would normally charge and he said around $110 or $120.

 

What??? That aint very nice. BEGGERS CANT BE CHOOSERS.

 

And I thought my dealer was crazy . The dealerships really dont get it. No one is going to hack up that cash for install. If they truely want to keep their customers comming back, they need to make their rates comepeteive, most importantly the Scion line. Alot of people around me are offering me great deals, because I will wear their decal, and they want their parts on a Scion.

Scion has the new generation of car buyers hooked into buying their cars, but, after that, the dealership is really out of the loop. Their buying system, where you can make your car is nice, but their aftermarket parts/install is for the birds.

Word that is crazy!! Is $800 for just springs and the install? Or is that coilovers? If it's just for springs and install that's loco man!

 

80 bucks at Quiken moto in stanton Cali.

 

? Yes, we suck because you don't know how to install your own suspension.

 

My dealership wants $500 for purchase and install. I was gonna do it cause I could drive off that way. I just found out that I pick up my car tonight, but the springs arent' going to be here for 3 days. If thats the case, I think I am gonna get the H&R springs and have a local shop install them. It would save about $100 and have a little better drop

 

drive to NJ and get it done for $80 dollars like I did, if you look in the north east forum you will see a lot of these posts
